OTOH, I had a perfectly good drive get kicked out of my RAID-1 array a fewyears ago just because, well, I guess I could say "it felt like it".
I've seen that too several times on my home "server".
I have also seen drives/partitions get kicked of of softraid arrays for unknown reasons. My first choice is to re-add the member into the softraid and see if it 1) will re-add and 2) if it stays a member
As far as re-adding drives to a softraid array, I've wrote on this list a few times before. Plus the URLs others have provided will help you as well. Any questions, just ask and somebody will reply.

Good luck. Digimer's advice about testing your scenario out on a VM is perfect one since you're new to the task.
